I've been trying to eat healthier, I know I have succeeded most days. I'm eating fewer calories and better foods than I had been and I'm exercising more regularly, so it's discouraging when the scale just keeps going up, or stays the same. I know I just need to stick with it, the ultimate goal is health, not just weight loss. I've taken measurements too, so I'll compare those at some point too and I'm sure that will be a better tool. I just have to keep reminding myself that this won't happen overnight, I need to be patient and keep pushing through.
Next week I'm going to look at some healthier options for dinner. I was doing really well making healthy dinners, but finally had enough of the complaining from the family and started making things they like. I tell myself that I'll eat just one serving or I'll have more veggies, or no tortilla with tacos, but I don't follow through. If the unhealthy food is there I'm going to eat it, if it's not there, I won't, so I need to clean up our dinners. I know it will be for the best for all of us, but the complaining truly drives me mad. I was at a point that I was about to explode at my kids for complaining, so I need to learn how to deal with their complaints and remember that they are being fed and it's healthy, so they can deal with it. I just need to allow for a night a week where we choose something they love and throw that in the mix. One night won't be so bad if I've planned out the week. We used to do "Friday Fat Night" and that would be our night to have pizza, go out to eat, or just have something maybe not so healthy. I guess it's time to start that up again.
Anyway, I'm just venting. I am still working for my health, I haven't given up. I hope everyone is doing great!
